Yesterday I was in Ouray waiting for a fellow worker to bring me stuff I need for customers on the front range. He informed me he's running behind, so I went to a place to watch the coming storm move in on the San Jaun's. I finally got all I needed loaded up and hit road. Wasn't all that bad of a drive until Vail pass which was a blowing whiteout up there. Today I headed up to almost tops of the front range and enjoyed the effects of it all. Makes me think of these lyrics to a song.

Ridin' the storm out, waitin' for the thaw out
On a full moon night in the Rocky Mountain
winter

Your office has one heck of a view! Hey, the first shot of that peak. There is definitely a highlighted capital "T" near the summit. For treasure?

Dang right there's treasure in those mountains. The mine we deal with is the richest silver mine now in the world, with millions in gold as a byproduct. They're really ramping things up at that mine now.
 
$23 +/- per ounce right now. With gold as a bonus! Glad to see the mining industry staying alive.

I thought it was written down on a bar napkin from the Buckhorn bar downtown Laramie but www says on a pack of zig-zag papers from the republic of boulder.
Are you mining the stuff that makes steel harder?

I don't mine the moly no more, but instead I'm the one who mines the miners. I'm fixing to head up to the Molybdenum mine up in Empire, Colorado with a load of 3" longhole bits, just as soon as I finish one more cup of coffee.
 
Its a small world. I have some friends from there. One goes in and gets samples?ore or, he graduated with honors, I didn’t but went twice as long.?.
When I cruise those mountain roads, wonder if I need a “jake brake” on my “road king”

Here's the gateway to the steel harding element mine I was at yesterday. Sorry no pics beyond the gate as it's strictly prohibited.
